A little persuasion? It took a lot of persuasion to get mine on. I was afraid I was going to break something.

I stole the idea from MAD XJ

Same here! I had to use a rubber mallet. I don't know how MAD XJ was able to do it with his hand!

I'm surprised this question hasn't come up before now......
The plan is for 35s, SOA rear with stock leafs, around 6" of lift up front.
Still haven't decided on what long arms yet. The lift is last on the list.
When the truck returns from paint I plan to focus on the interior and electical first, then the drivetrain and suspension.

Love the color choice, curious as to what thats going to look like on an MJ. As for the rest of the build, looks great! I have been considering something very similar, but think I'm going to get a Grand Wagoneer instead, I need something that will be able to tow my Jeep once I can start with my long term plans for it.
